What Acupuncture Treats

Traditional Chinese Medicine (including acupuncture) is a complete form of medicine, which means it has historically been used to treat all areas of illness. At its core is a model of health which the acupuncturist is always heading.

Because of this model of health and the subtlety of the medicine, there is always an imbalance to be found whether it is small or large. In this way, acupuncture can potentially be useful with any illness, even if it isn’t the main treatment the patient using.
